watch lags recording heartbeat during exercises

I’ve had my watch for a year (Apple watch 5 Nike GPS) and I work out daily and for at least 10-20 minutes of my 60 minute workouts (broken in multiple segments) the watch doesn’t record my heartbeat. Any suggestions or should I just switch from Apple to something specifically designed for workouts only?

Make sure that you don't have the watch in power saving mode
